Default Dilemma on ST or TT

after reading many threads and researching and asking around

Oh and of course saving enough money . im finally ready to get one or the either.

My local shop has a used greddy tt kit that they'll package with the install for a real good price.

But right now there is a used ST kit which ive been talking to the guy with and its very good condition.

Both kits installed and everything would be about 1500-2000 dollar difference.

Which would you choose? Im not definent on building my block right now so...

I'd like some real answers or opinions if possible on what you would do. Not like davidv or someone else says "if we tell you to go TT, will you?"

thanks and this Forum rocks. my fault

Based on the fact that you could get a TT kit over a ST kit for only $500-700, the choice is easy, go TT. Quicker spool (not that singles lag) and WAY more power potential for you later down the line. BTW this thread does not rock.

Honestly, only you can answer that. It really depends what you want to do with the car down the road. If you have any intention of building later I'd go TT. If your wanting a lil boost to make you happy I'd go with the ST...but as most people can vouch...boost is addicting so once you go boost you'll get used to it and want to crank it up so def think about your long term on what you choose.

if u plan on keeping a stock block, a st and a tt will perform almost the same, only the st being easier to install. if u plan on going w/ a built motor,only the tt will suffice.

I think twins would be easier to install and maintain, because of the symetrical plumbing.

"Dear Lord,

I am not sure if i should go with the 6" ***** or the 9" *****. My girl friend is very petite and i really don't have any desire to be with another woman, but i can't exactly say for sure. Though the 9" ***** would be nice, i can't really use it now because it my hurt my current gf. I want to marry this woman and i probably won't ever need the use of a 9" in *****. If you could please chose for me God i would really appreciate it.
